Resurrection: The Michael Callen Story Dane Stewart, Andrew Morrisey, and Andrew Boudreau grew up playing music together in Truro. Now, the trio is coming home with a moving show about a hero from the early AIDS movement. Part-podcast, part-cabaret, and fully gay, Resurrection tells the story of early AIDS activist Michael Callen through live musical performances. The show is directed by Truro superstar, Margot Bégin. Michael Callen was a singer and songwriter who played a vital role in AIDS activism, but has been largely forgotten in recent decades. He saved countless lives by inventing safe sex in the 1980s. He created the first buyers club in America. He fought with Dr. Tony Fauci to get drugs approved faster. The show is touring the east coast following performances at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa and Buddies in Bad Times in Toronto. Resurrection is based on the award-winning Resurrection podcast which is dedicated to sharing the stories of queer people whose lives have been impacted by HIV/AIDS. Since its release in 2023, Resurrection has charted among the Top 15 podcasts in Canada and was recently named one of the best podcasts of 2024 by Amazon Music, the Irish Independent, and Podcast Review. The performance will take place on Saturday, February 1 at St Andrew’s United Church, 55 King Street, Truro, NS. Showtime is 7:30pm. Doors open at 7:00pm. The show runs approximately 90 minutes with no intermission. Tickets are $20.00 in advance and $25.00 at the door. This project is made possible thanks to the support of the Canada Council for the Arts. AGE WARNING: This show contains discussions of sexually explicit material. We recommend the show for audiences 18+.
